‘Bachelor’ mansion burned in California wildfire

The mansion that serves as the home of
ABC’s “The Bachelor” has burned in the Woolsey fire currently raging in
southern California.
The lower house has reportedly been destroyed, while flames have reached
the back patio of the main house and are continuing to advance.

Warner Bros. Television, which produces the series, had no comment.

Series creator Mike Fleiss and ABC’s head of reality programming Rob
Mills shared the news on Twitter, with Mills writing, “Thinking of the
people of Malibu and yes #TheBachelor Mansion is in grave danger as
well.”

The series, which films at the lavish mansion twice a year, is currently
in production on Season 23 but is not currently filming at the mansion.
When the series isn’t filming, it’s home to the Haraden family.

The mansion is located in the Agoura Hills area of Los Angeles County,
one of several communities affected by the wildfires currently burning
their way through large portions of the state. The well-known filming
location Paramount Ranch in Agoura Hills–which has been used by shows
like “Westworld,” “Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman,” and “Weeds”–was destroyed
by the fire earlier on Friday.

Thousands of people in the Thousand Oaks, Calabasas, and Malibu areas
have all been forced to evacuate their homes. The fire has now grown to
encompass 14,000 acres, with celebrities like Lady Gaga, Kim Kardashian,
and Rainn Wilson all forced from their homes as the fire spreads, with
the home of Caitlyn Jenner reportedly already destroyed.

“Fire is now burning out of control and heading into populated areas of
Malibu,” the city advised residents at 12:27 p.m. “All residents must
evacuate immediately.”

To the north, the Camp Fire has already killed at least five people,
with the victims having been discovered in their cars by rescue crews.
